Welcome. My name is Bud Hill. I'm the Director emeritus of the Village Museum at McClellanville, SC. Welcome to the Brick Church at Wambaw or St. James-Santee Parish Episcopal Church. I'd like to tell you a little bit about the church since this year is a wonderful occasion in its history. This year, 2018, our church building will turn two-hundred and fifty years old.Two-hundred and fifty years is longer than America has been a nation, and that is a great reason to celebrate this particular building. While the church building is that old, our parish is much older. The St. James-Santee Parish is the second oldest parish - only downtown Charleston is a little older than we are. I want to tell you a little bit about the parish first and then we'll get to the present church building.
